My co-worker insists the tears are not pus. Just regular tears, diluting dried pus material in the lacrimal ducts.
Regardless, they are green, thick, and of course hang in her eyes and run down her cheeks since they cannot drain.
The fun thing is when a new nurse sees this and freaks out a bit. If I am feeling really evil I suggest she apply a warm compress and “paplate” the corner of her eye a bit.
Yum, playdoh factory. You could make bracelets with the ropes that come out of there!

Man, juji_mojo/, you really have the descriptive talents needed for this kind of thread… gag
You guys are all goofballs.
Bring da kid, Rysdad! I’m guessing his name is Ryan?
I typically end up with such plugs after a sinus infection or serious cold. My nose will be completely clogged, typically on only one side, for several days; then, with one or two violent sneezes, the whole clump is discharged.
Somtimes, when my nose is extremely congested due to allergies, I can force mucus out through a duct in my right eye. It’s always clear though.
Thanks, Mercy! Any day you learn something is a Good day.
Gazelle, I didn’t mean to imply the 4th Mechanized should invade your apartment. I was just thinking of how cool it would be to get you a guest spot on ‘ALIAS’. Could you imagine squaring off against Jennifer Garner? As she gets into a kickboxing stance, you Blast one that sticks right in the middle of her forehead!!!
I mean, after that, they might have to start calling her ‘The Green Ranger’…
quietman1920, I live in a townhouse.
And I could kick Jennifer Garner’s ass with my left pinky, that beeyotch! Wouldn’t even have to resort to the more powerful weapons in my vast arsenal.
It’s Friday. I feel feisty.
dear. gawd.
why did I not read this thread before meeting you?
does it only smell of ass when it is outside of your maxiofacial confines? Do you find yourself sometimes searching your home for the source of the smell, only to realize that it is the LGP?
Nursebaby, I am SO glad you didn’t read this before you met me. You now have (I hope) a good first impression of me.
It usually smells of ass only when it is outside of the confines of my sinus. However, when I am ill, I sometimes smell it… You asked.
I don’t have sinus problems, but if I hold my nose and try to breathe out, I do get small streams of air that come out of both the inner corners of my eyes. This is the first time I’ve ever heard of anyone else having the same thing. No pus, spit, snot, or anything else though. Thank Gods.
Does anyone else with sinus problems smell a “raw potato” smell a few days before an infection shows up?
I didn’t know that raw potatoes had a smell.
In udda woids, no.
Damn, after reading all this my septoplasty seems downright… mundane.
Reading the title, I had envisioned a totally different kind of “plug.” :eek:
I suppose the fact that I clicked anyways doesn’t say much for my character…(or does it say too much?)
The nassssty discharges detailed in this thread amaze and delight me. Almost makes me wish my bizarre bodily expulsions were more impressive than mere Uterus Jelly and Tonsil StenchPebbles. Almost.
You’re not the only one. Several attendees of Minneapolis DopeLunch also thought it was a plug of a different variety.
Don’t worry, GfH. I still have yet to meet you, and trust me, I’ll be looking closely for any LGP in your schnozz next Saturday …
mmmm nice link to TMI threads.
how do I search for TMI if the search wont let me check for three letter words?
I was really, truly okay with reading what Juji posted until he mentioned the bit about not being able to define the smell…
OH FREAKIN’ HORKIN’ GROSS!
Hi Vanilla…
Im a SHE, just in case you wanted to know. And Im still not totally sold that “Aged ass” is the BEST discription of the odor of lacrimal oozings.
Scablet…I am awed and amazed by tonsilliths. I almost want some, but tonsils and I parted ways…(but we promised to stay friends… didnt happen) almost 20 years ago. The Uterine Jelly I will just leave for the time being, thank-you all the same.
(No it doesnt “gross me out. You can’t gross me out. I see more revolting things before 9 am than most people see all day!”)
ooops. ODOUR. [wrist slapp and self-flagillation] Bad juji mojo spelling like an American. [/wrist slap and self-flagillation]
Ho, ho, ho,
Hee, hee, hee,
Little green plug,
How I love thee!
